818-338-2962

Just received a call from obviously foreign "Steve Modern".  Did not answer but they left message they were from enforcement of US Treasury.  Pretty sure it is Scam to get us to call back and give information.  

Got the same call. Twice. Would like to wring this guy's neck.

Just got a phone call from here too, from a Steve Modern, thick accent, caller ID says Agoura Hills CA. Says call is 2nd attempt regarding enforcement action, usual threats that to ignore is a federal crime- They called last week too,  from a different number, 215-734-0029. almost exact same message, obviously recorded, because it re-played 3 times, word for word, If you look up the original number, a lot of sites say this is a scam. Appears they have just changed numbers, because people realize its a scam. Wlll be blocking this number too

Just received a call from this number and same thing, said he was from enforcement for US Treasury and that I needed to pay for 2009 and 2010 taxes. Asked if I received the 3 notices that were sent to us and read me an address I haven't lived at for almost 10 years. Total scam!

This site is a good reference for this scam

This India guy has called several times,  He is saying we will have to go before a magistrate if we ignore the call.   Keep getting the same message.  

Also received a call on voice mail from person with accent named "Steve Modern" at 818-338-2962. Same message, on behalf of Treasury Department that we would receive only one more call and it would be a criminal offense to avoid it. No specifics given as to what it was about, but threatened a mandatory court appearance if we did not respond.

just received a call from this same guy threatening the exact same things from the treasury dept. Folks be aware

Just had phone message left on home phone. Some Indian guy threatening legal matters from US Treasury. Total hoax.

I received a call from "The Department of Legal Affairs" of the United States Treasury.  This call was from someone calling themselves Steve Modern (Martin?) with a very thick accent.  The call was from 818-328-2962 and it went to my voicemail.  They asked that I return the call to 818-338-2962.  A woman with ID #1533 told me that I had miscalculations on my 2011 and 2012 tax returns and that when she hung up the phone a magistrate would come arrest me for tax evasion and I would be put in jail for a year.

Hoax. Con artist.   Here's the interpreted text of the voice mail.
"Executed by US Treasury intending(?) your Sears attention. Ignoring this will be an additional second attempt to avoid-white(?) initial appearance before magistrate judge or a graduate for a federal criminal offense. My number is 818-338-2962. I repeat 818-338-2962. I'd like you to cooperate with others(?) and helpers to help you. Thank you."

I laughed at their scam

This type of scam need to be punished. They already call me twice under the same call ID: 818 338 2962

Do consider maybe getting a call blocking device or phone.. You can google them and many are around $60.00 or so.

I received three voice mails to today from Steve Modest, heavy foreign accent, indicating the same concerns above and to contact them immediately which of course I did not. The number called from was 818-328-2962 and the number to call back was 818-338-2962, the numbe may have been the same but the voice message number appeared to be 338 not 328. Anyway I called the FTC and Texas State Consumer Protection as recommended by the FBI. Unfortunately, noone I contacted seemed too worked up about it when they should track down and pursue these crooks. They not calling to see how healthy I am!!

Received several calls today from this #. When I answered the phone the person droned on as though a recording, there was background noise like telemarketers. This is the msg :
Steve Modern(?!) is calling regarding an enforcement actions (no typo) executed by the U.S. Treasury intending your serious attention. Ignoring this will be an intentional second attempt to avoid initial appearance before a magistracy judge or a grand jury for a federal criminal offense.
Then gives phone # ending with 'I'd like you to cooperate with us and help us to help you'!
Outrageous! This threat must be illegal!"

We were contacted on our personal house phone by someone (we could not understand, a recorded message) from Agoura Hills, Calif. 818-338-2962.  I called the number back and got a hold of a Robert James - U.S. Dept of Legal Affairs.  He stated that, "We are calling to tell you that you made an error on your 2007-2008 tax return.  You have not responded to our initial notices, so a CP503 Notice, with a warrant, has been issued for your arrest.  An agent came to your house last Thursday, the 4th of September, and was not able to make contact to give service.  Please remain at your home and he will show up within the hour.  Please co-operate with him.  You can call your lawyer, but it is not something that will delay your incarceration.  No, we don't care what your accountant says.  Please co-operate."  With that he hung up.

I just got the same phone call from Steve Modern. It is a scam.

This idiot is laughable, "let us help you help us" quote - official from the government!  Find a real turkey!

SCAM!!!!!!!!!! hang up. Don't reply. REPORT
